The European Union has imposed new sanctions on 22 Russian banks. This was reported by Zamin.uz.
These restrictions aim to limit the banks' activities in the international SWIFT payment system and freeze their assets in European countries. These sanctions are part of the EU's 14th major sanctions package and were adopted in response to Russia's military actions in Ukraine.
The list includes major commercial and state banks of Russia. The sanctions are expected to seriously impact international trade and financial operations.
The main goal is to reduce Russia's ability to finance its military expenditures. Through these measures, the European Union aims to financially restrict Russia's military activities.
At the same time, the restrictions on banks' activities serve to diminish Russia's position in the international financial system. The new sanctions could negatively affect Russia's economic stability.
This could weaken the country's position in the international arena. Organizations and companies collaborating with Russian banks during the sanctions should also exercise caution.
The measures adopted by the European Union more clearly express the international community's stance on Russia's military actions.
